Parameters on Non-Marketo Page

Hey Community,

Is there a way to use parameters to reference the information entered in a Mkto form on the follow up page if that page is not a Mkto page?

Any help would be appreciated!

Re: Parameters on Non-Marketo Page

Yes, once the data is submitted it would be storred in a field. You could then use a token in your return url string that contains that field. All you would need is a simple javascript that would parse that value into your page. We do this with Adwords links all the time by adding a string to url. Does that make sense?

Re: Parameters on Non-Marketo Page

This might help:

function getQueryValue(firstName) { var qstring = window.location.search, qstringArray = qstring && qstring.substring(1).split("&"), i = 0, len = qstringArray.length; for (; i < len; i++) { var token = qstringArray[i], eqIndex = token.indexOf("="), firstPart = token && token.substring(0, eqIndex); if (firstPart === param ) { return token.substring(eqIndex + 1, token.length); } } } 

E.g. Given a URL “http://domain.com?firstName=Jeff” , you can call this function as getQueryValue(“firstName”) and you'll get “Jeff”

Thanks Jeff!

And this can be done with multiple values? I am not technical, but I am working with one of our web developers so I will see if this makes sense to him.

Re: Parameters on Non-Marketo Page

I just spoke with him and he says what you outlined works for obtaining info from a URL and using it. We are looking to take info from the Mkto form and put that in a URL after the submission. Is this doable?

This is what I envisioned in the form settings:

This would be the only way I can think of it from a form submission. I know this works from email links etc but have not tested it on the Thank You page. Let me know how it works!

Good o' fashioned JQuery will do it as Jeffrey states.

Just tested using the token in the form URL and It wont work. Tried a non marketo follow up page and a marketo page, both renders lots of %20%7B etc.

I've creted an Idea in the community: https://community.marketo.com/MarketoIdeaDetail?id=08750000000JceeAAC
